Here are some notes I had tucked away. I haven't used them in awhile. I hope they are still accurate. Here is how to find text in a specific color: Press CTL F for the find menu, Be sure the find edit box is empty of any text. Tab to format. It will be after the cancel button. If you don't hear it, look for the MORE button. Press enter and tab again. You will find lots of options to search for: mixed case, whole words, wild card etc. Press enter on the Format button. You will land on the Font... menu option. Press enter. Tab until you here FONT color. Arrow up down, left or right until you hear the color you need to search for. Press enter. Tab to OK. You should be back on the original Find page. Press enter and any text in the chosen color will be located. This Find specification will remain until you exit WORD, not just the document. So if you want to stop searching for a color you can either open a new session of WORD or use the steps above to set the color back to auto. If you ever need To check/remind yourself which color is being searched, you can check the font & color attributes for what is in the FIND edit box dialogue by route JAWS to PC cursor (insert numpad minus) and arrow down. This will read what attributes are being searched.
